Seems a bit more difficult...
[jeff@Desk gsmc-1.1]$ git-update-cache --force-remove main.o
[jeff@Desk gsmc-1.1]$ cg-diff
Index: main.o
===================================================================
Binary files a5d1a55e0818ab11b71fee01bcd9053c4ecc65a6/main.o 
(mode:100644) and /dev/null (tree:uncommitted) differ
[jeff@Desk gsmc-1.1]$ cg-commit
Refusing to make an empty commit - the tree was not modified
since the previous commit. If you really want to make the
commit, do: commit-tree `tree-id` -p `parent-id`
